If you have links posted in your sigs/garages/etc, you'll need to change the "xk-forum" part to "theultimatejeep" otherwise the link will take you to the main page of the forum instead of the intended target.

Now that's a PITA :( you know how many links I have out there I know I won't be able to find them all that's for sure.

Yeah... i didn't expect that either. Didn't have that issue on other forums that switched names, so im wondering if its fixable?

I've just been hitting them as I see em.

Sorry about that, did not expect that to happen but at least it is a one time thing.

I just realized that if you include all the links in all the threads that for me I'm looking at hundreds of broken links. Also for some reason just changing the name didn't work for me either. :mad: There is no way I'm finding all those links and changing them......:(

There's no reason it shouldnt work... make sure you didn't accidently delete a '.' or remove the '.com'.... just replace the letters "xk-forum" with "theultimatejeep" and it'll work.

OR, replace "www.xk-forum.com" with "www.theultimatejeep.com" to make it a bit easier to highlight and paste over...

I think Sal needs to add a line to his sig:
"If one of my links you clicked on doesn't work, please PM me"

I must of did something wrong on my first attempt its working now. That means every thread we ever linked over my 2k post I've made are all broken LMAO.... It's going to take months to recover all those. I got my sig and garage fixed but man my recruiting links are now broke and who knows where all those are......
